The Kiradu Temples were built between the 10th and 12th centuries by the Guhilot dynasty. They represent a unique blend of architectural styles, influenced by the Solanki and Gurjara-Pratihara traditions. The temples were abandoned and fell into ruin after attacks by Turkish invaders in the 12th century. Over time, they were buried under sand dunes, which helped preserve the intricate carvings from further damage. Rediscovered in the 19th century, the Kiradu Temples are now protected as a heritage site and are slowly being restored to their former glory.
